right there with you. I bought a couple the other day to try and I do not like them......

I didn't have to do Clear liquids for my pre/post diet. Just liquid, so I could do the protien shakes. I am still struggling to find those that I can take, so I can't offer much help.

I don't know what your sugar requirements are, but I buy the grape frost Isopure and add some countrytime pink lemonade to it to make it tolerable. When you are on full liquids, you can try the sugar free carnation instant Breakfast ready to drink btls and add some unflavored Protein Powder to it, to give it extra Protein.< /p>

Grape frost is my favorite too... You can add a crystal light or other "to go" sugar free packet to it if you need better flavor but can't do the sugar lemonade.

I used Unjury powder and I e-mailed the company to confirm that I could use it during Clear Liquids. They said absolutely as long as it's mixed with a clear liquid - i.e., not milk or Slim Fasts. So you could try that. Let me just say that Unjury's chicken Soup flavored powder is the only thing that got me through my clear liquids phase (which seems so far away, but was only four weeks ago). It tastes just as good as your favorite canned soup and it's a godsend when you're sick of sweet drinks! I added Tabasco and lime juice to mine when I got bored with it straight and it really, really helped. You just have to mind the sodium.

I think the Protein shots are too sweet and syrupy so I mix only half of the shot in a bottle of Water and make it into a kool-aid and I usually mix in whatever sugar free packet drink mix that will compliment it like fruit punch with the fruit punch, grape with the grape, it is so much better.

You put the other half in the fridge until your ready for it. I pretty much leave mine there.

Thank u all for the suggestions. I never thought about mixing or diluting them. I will try that and the unjury.

Thanks again,

Celeste

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
